Alocasia fornicata

''Alocasia fornicata'' is a plant species of many-nerved, broad-leaved, rhizomatous or tuberous perennials from the family Araceae, native to Indochina and to the Indian Subcontinent.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families )〕 It characteristically grows 2' - 3 ' in height with slightly pink petiole, triangular wide shaped leaves and a horizontally growing stolon.〔Ara, H. (2001). An Annotated Checklist of Aroids of Bangladesh. Bangladesh Journal of Plant Taxonomy 8(2): 19-34.〕〔Govaerts, R. & Frodin, D.G. (2002). World Checklist and Bibliography of Araceae (and Acoraceae): 1-560.

The plant's spadix is collected and cooked in North East India, Mizoram and Tripura where the plant is known locally as Baibing. ''Alocasia affinis'' is also consumed. Both are a much favored seasonal vegetable.
The plant, including the spadix, contains needle-shaped crystals of calcium oxalate known as raphides that are believed to be a defense mechanism against plant predators〔Arnott, H.J., M.A, Webb (2000). (Twinned Raphides of Calcium Oxalate in Grape (''Vitis''): Implications for Crystal Stability and Function ). ''International Journal of Plant Sciences'' 161(1):133–142.〕 that can tear and damage the mucus membranes of the throat or esophagus.〔(Outbreak of Food-borne Illness Associated with Plant Material Containing Raphides ). Informa Healthcare.〕
